Signed, Claude Monet. The TARDIS begins to hum & its doors swing wide.The year tomorrow will be 1887. What will you wear? This is a Group Invitation Board for c 1887. Please! - No ads. No #tags. No biz. Please! - This is for fun & imaginations! Thank you! -Julia Henri

1887 cotton twill corset - really unusual, this corset is 'fully boned' like corsets leading up to the late 18th c. - in keeping with other corsets of it's period each boning channel is flossed at the top and bottom - but the profusion of boning channels creates an interesting effect with the flossing.
